Thank you so much for sharing the information. My main problem is listening and reading. I got good scores in speaking. Do you take notes while listening? I can't take notes fast enough and also can't concentrate if I take notes. so I am confused. you got really good marks. please advise.

Thank you so much . I have few more questions please. How do you answer the last question in the reading section?( question 14) Any strategy you follow? In case of vocabulary, which one do you chose? The actual meaning of the word or the one which fits best in to the sentence for example, customers were served by courteous, experienced salesman. The word courteous is closest to the meaning of polite(courteous) or knowledgeable(experienced)?

I guess the answer to that is polite. I don't remember what q comes last in the reading section. Kindly remind me?
 
Thank you.The question no.14 is summary. Out of 6 options we have to pick 3 which best describe the summary of the paragraph.
